Hello Greg,
  How would you like it if I did the install on your M748? I sold the
one I had here to my son-in-law. I could get another but I thought this
might work out well for you too. If you want, give me a call
716-553-8525 and we can get together to make sure we will have it ready,
i.e. all the hardware necessary, etc. Let me know, peter at cybersource.us

    awful shared video memory BIOS for Win98.  Maybe they're better

    memory better than Win98.  
     
    Father's Day looks good to me!  My daughter still rubs it in about
    missing the last meeting!  My 10 year old son wants to come, but I
    have to keep telling him that it's NOT an end to end QuakeFest! ;-) 
    I wonder if he could stand the sitting for the tutorial.  It'd be
    good for him, but I think he'd be too easily distracted, bored and
    fidgety.

        Mandrake 8.2 (Bluebird) comes with kernel version 2.4.18-6mdk. I
        plan on doing the install on a PCChips M748MRT motherboard with
        a 533mhz Celeron cpu and 96MB ram. This is an all-in-one
        motherboard except for the NIC, I put that in the one expansion
        slot. There are no other slots on this mb so it's a choice of
        either doing the NIC or the TV Tuner. If there is time, I
        suppose I could pop out the NIC and put in the TV Tuner card to
        show the install on that, although we would need a cable or
        antenna hookup of some sort to show how it works. I will do the
        install from scrap but if we run out of time, I have dumped and
        restored the entire config to a different hard drive that I
        could pop in and at least show how it all works.

            The  16th works for me. 
            I'm really looking forward to the pesentation, especially since Peter mentioned "all in 
            one" Motherboards.  Maybe an upgrade to Mandrake 8.2 will solve most or all of my little 
            glitches. 
            
            Does a newer release of a distro necessarily include a newer version of the kernel ? 
            My present one is 2.4.8 . What's in Mandrake 8.2 ?
